Lol you Ali G Btw what does rainbow kisser mean

[ElRaja]

just to elaborate there are two dunnows, one is the internet dunnow which was just a quicker way to write dont know, the other was the patois (jamaican dialect) dont know, pronounced dunn no.

inner city London "gangsters" would use it to highlight that something is beyond anothers comprehension and understanding, example you get some flash trainers for cheap.

guy 2. u dunn no fam. i got nex level links.
